Welcome to the Believe Bride Tribe! On June 18th, 2021 Taylor and Brandon married. We are so happy for you and wish you luck on your new adventure in Tennessee!
The Proposal: Brandon proposed while we were visiting family in Knoxville, TN. He wanted to do it while we were in Tennessee as we were soon moving there. We had planned to go tubing down the river that morning, but he had asked that we take a small detour to Cades Cove first. I was annoyed (as I was ready to tube LOL) but agreed. We got out and as I was admiring the mountains and views he was behind me ring in hand. I was shocked (as we had just discussed marriage the night before and he explained he wasn’t ready yet) but it was beautiful! He used my grandmothers wedding ring and it’s absolutely perfect.
The Big Day: Our wedding was at a winery/vineyard and with it being in June everything was filled in, green, and blooming! We only had two bridesmaids and two groomsmen and my father officiated. Another special touch was our memorial table. This was filled with pictures of loved ones who have passed and it was very special to have in our reception area. Our wedding didn’t really have a ‘theme’ but the colors were sage green, creams, white, and navy blue and the decor was very simple, earthy, and natural I would say.
What was your favorite part of your wedding?: My favorite part was having my father officiate it! It made it so special.
Special Memories: The first dance with my husband and father were special to me. My first look with each of them individually were also highlights!
What advice would you give to future brides?: Assign someone that isn’t in the family (if you can) to help with things the day of.
